German lady who loved Thailand gets her last request

SURAT THANI:-- An old German lady in love with Koh Samui and Thailand asked her landlady if she could die there in her rented room. The landlady, thinking not much of it, just said "of course."

Five days later the 85 year old woman was found dead on the bed in her room, reports Daily News.

Samui police found the body of Conradi Waltratmagot (transliterated) lying on the bed in her room at the property in the Ang Thong sub-district. A packet of cigarettes and an almost full bottle of pills was found on a table beside the bed. There were no signs of foul play. The lady was known to be an asthmatic.

The body was found by Pornthip Chuto,64, a maid who the dead lady employed to look after her. She said that Conradi had complained of a stomach ache and gone to bed after taking seven aspirin. When she went to check on her later Tuesday she found her gasping then she passed out. CPR failed to revive her and hospital staff who were alerted soon found her dead.

The owner of the room named only as Janjira said that five days before her death Conradi had asked for permission if it was alright to die in her room because she loved Samui and Thailand so much.

"She had already been renting here for eight months," Janjira told police, "and seeing as she was old I didn't think much of it. So I just said, of course."

An autopsy is to be carried out and the German embassy is to be contacted so that the lady who loved Thailand is reunited with her relatives.

Did it her way. Not much more one can ask. Beats hell out of dying in a hospital or nursing home room.

Waltraud Margot Conradi - they probably transliterated her name from German into Thai and then into English from her ID.

edit: Possibly Waltraut

And now the landlady is playing the deceased person's numbers next lottery.

Good luck!

Frank Sinatra – My Way Lyrics

And now, the end is near;
And so I face the final curtain.
My friend, I'll say it clear,
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain.

I've lived a life that's full.
I've traveled each and every highway;
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Regrets, I've had a few;
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.

I planned each charted course;
Each careful step along the byway,
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew.
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall;
And did it my way.

I've loved, I've laughed and cried.
I've had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
"Oh no, oh no not me,
I did it my way".

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it my way!
